Description Floating Sauna:
A floating sauna for the Rosendal vilallage by Finnish architects Casagrande & Rintala in cooperation with Västlands Art Academy. All the village can see the sauna on the Hardangerfjord and it shines as a lantern in the evenings. One enters the sauna by swimming or with a rowing boat. The walls are semi-transparent and will show when the things are cooking. The Floating Sauna is a happy marriage of Finnish and Norwegian cultures.
